Lucasfilm Ltd. is preparing to bring audiences back to a galaxy far, far away with “Star Wars Resistance”. This time, though, the adventure isn’t happening on the big screen. The new animated series is set to debut on Disney XD this fall. Check out the first trailer in the player above and find out how it ties directly to the new saga movies.

“Star Wars Resistance” follows Kazuda “Kaz” Xiono, a young pilot recruited by the Resistance for a top-secret mission to spy on the growing threat of the First Order. In a one-hour premiere titled “The Recruit,” Poe and BB-8 assign Kaz to the Colossus, a massive aircraft re-fueling platform on an outer rim water planet, home to colorful new aliens, droids and creatures. While undercover, Kaz works as a mechanic and lives with Poe’s old friend Yeager, a veteran pilot who operates a starship repair shop run by his crew: Tam, Neeku and their old battered astromech droid, Bucket. Kaz soon finds himself in over his head with his new friend BB-8 as he’ll have to compete in dangerous sky races, keep his mission a secret from his newfound family, and avoid the danger of the First Order.
